I am syndicated. Show me some respect. When I was a kid, I wanted to be the Mexican Louis Armstrong. They would've called me: Dirty Satchmo.

He is bad
...if you're a trans person who speaks out about how horrible Newsom is on trans issues, you get *flooded* with ppl telling you to "vote blue no matter who". to which I say: fuck you! would you vote for a politician who says he wants to roll back your rights? www.erininthemorning.com/p/why-transg...

It just struck me that newspaper comic strips were sort of proto-posting: you come up with a joke every single day and eventually you either mellow out or become completely insane

Stop misrepresenting what LLMs are. They can’t betray you. They don’t think, they don’t feel, they aren’t sentient.

I have empathy for someone who is hurting but it’s so severely irresponsible to report on it this way. It further normalizes the thinking that an LLM can have personhood. Come on

Yes it’s Valentine’s Day. But it’s also the chosen birthday of Frederick Douglass who was born in 1818 on a plantation in Talbot County, Maryland. He escaped from slavery & rose to become the most eloquent and forceful voice for the abolition of slavery & for Black voting rights in the U.S.

I've just remembered that in the Amber TTRPG, you can become more powerful if you promise to write poetry about every session of the game, but if you don't actually do it, the GM gets the universe to bully you. This is very unrealistic, because IRL, the universe bullies you if you do write poetry.

Newsom will be the guy the DNC will rally behind because he "stands up to Trump" and "can work with both sides of the aisle," but it's really because he is a Republican in sheep's clothing. He hates the unhoused. He doesn't understand transpeople. He's going to be the "lesser of two evils."
